Stem Cell Therapy In Use Now

Did you know that there are several stem cell therapies that are currently being used routinely to treat some diseases? I would like to talk about the stem cell therapy in use now and contrast that with our Stem Cell Nutritional supplements by Stemtech.

There are stem cell therapies that are used regularly now, both for pets and for people. The people-type therapies include adult stem cell transplant from bone marrow stem cells; from peripheral blood stem cells and there is umbilical cord blood stem cell transplants The most common type of stem cell therapy is the bone marrow transplant, which is used to treat leukemia and other types of cancer as well as various blood disorders. These treatments can be very expensive (especially for those without insurance coverage) and can be uncomfortable.

A bone marrow transplant requires that the patient's bone marrow stem cells are replaced with those from a healthy, matching donor. All of the patient's existing bone marrow is killed using a combination of chemotherapy and radiation, then a sample of the donor's bone marrow (with healthy adult stem cells) is introduced into the patient's blood stream. A successful transplant would mean that the adult stem cells that were introduced migrate into the patient's bone marrow and then begins producing new, healthy adult stem cells to replace the ones that were killed off.

This type of therapy is extreme and necessary in certain situations. For those of us who may not have extreme medical conditions requiring total bone marrow transplantation, we have a stem cell nutritional product that allows your own body to work on healing itself. Our flagship product, StemEnhance, allows your body to release about 25% more adult stem cells from your bone marrow into your blood stream. This increase in adult stem cells allows your body to heal itself better because those migrating adult stem cells are essentially easier to access and utilize. Without going through a transplant situation, your body now has more adult stem cells in the blood stream, which means it can heal areas faster. The best thing about StemEnhance is that it is a completely natural product and does not introduce anything artificial into your system. All StemEnhance does is allow your body to release more adult stem cells into the blood stream.

Our next product, StemFlo, helps to keep your blood flowing better throughout your body. By having improved circulation, your body is better able to carry the adult stem cells to the areas in need. Our last and newest product, ST-5, enhances the migration of your adult stem cells into the cells that are in need. The best part about ST-5 is that it is a powder (all natural) that can be mixed into almost any liquid and then consumed. It

• Supports stem cells’ ability to migrate
• Balanced, Sustained energy
• Bio-available vitamins & minerals
• Appetite-satisfying protein & fiber
• Supports healthy body-fat & muscle
  (low in calories)

All three of these products combine to provide the tools for your body to renew itself and will reduce your need for any additional vitamin supplements. We also have adult stem cell products for Dogs and Horses too. Since all of the products are natural, there should be minimal negative reactions to them.

Taking StemEnhance, StemFlo and ST-5, or any combination, will help your body to heal itself and work on staying healthier overall. If you have any questions regarding these products or our Pet products, please feel free to contact us through e-mail. Our website also has a large amount of information and Frequently Asked Questions that is also very useful.

Until tomorrow...

One Sick Little Yorkie and StemPet

Well, today was far more stressful than it should have been. Our little Yorkie, Hawg, had been exhibiting some discomfort when going to the bathroom. We had assumed that because of the excess heat and humidity they had been in, he was just uncomfortable and nothing serious was wrong. What we found out though was that we had one sick little Yorkie.

Last night I noticed that Hawg was straining a whole lot when going to the bathroom. He was straining so hard you could hear this little guy fart. Normally you do not hear dogs fart, but this guy was making farting noises. I found it somewhat funny, but was worried because I know he is sick when you can hear him fart. As I observed, he was really straining with his urination. Since we try really hard to make sure our dogs are well fed, healthy and have enough exercise, I couldn't believe that we were seeing health problems with Hawg.

I was relatively diligent (sometimes forgot to give them their dosage) in giving Hawg and Gypsy their StemPet to keep them healthy. Except for the straining, there were no other obvious signs of illness or listlessness in Hawg. By this morning, he appeared to be unable to urinate at all. We were able to locate a Veterinary Clinic within 3 miles of our rally site (actually the ONLY Vet within 50 miles of this site) and shuttled him off to the vet first thing in the morning.

As luck would have it, by the time we got to the vet, Hawg was having minimal problems urinating all over. I was almost tempted to leave assuming that all was well, but knew better. The vet looked at Hawg and could see no physical problems, even no evidence of any type of kidney stones (the symptoms I described seemed to indicate he had kidney stones). After X-rays, we discovered that Hawg had 5 kidney stones. No wonder he wasn't feeling too good. We think that the brief motorcycle ride from the rally to the vet may have knocked one of those stones enough that he passed it, but he was a ticking time bomb for the other stones.

Hawg is scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning, to remove the remaining 5 stones. I am worried sick since this will be the first time in 4 years that he has not been with us overnight. Theoretically, we don't get him back until Saturday, two nights without our little monster. We will survive, but just barley.

The good news in all of this is that I truly believe that the StemPet that we have been giving both dogs has been instrumental in keeping Hawg healthy in all other aspects. Kidney stones do not form overnight, and he has only been on StemPet for the last month and a half. What I believe is that Hawg was not running any fever, nor was he exhibiting any other problems because the StemPet was working to keep him as healthy as possible. His weight is good, he remained alert and active, heck, if I didn't notice the straining when he went to the bathroom, we probably would not know anything was bothering him. We currently have one sick little Yorkie, but he will be on the mend quickly.

As soon as he can, we will put him back on StemPet after his surgery so that he can heal quickly and safely. I would like to believe that he didn't have any other problems because StemPet was helping his immune system do what it does best, keep him healthy. We should get Hawg back in two days (the two longest days of our lives...) and I will keep you all posted on his progress.

If you have any questions regarding what StemPet may be able to do for your dog, please feel free to contact me at hawgwash1@yahoo.com. We also offer products that will help us people to stay healthier too. We offer StemEnhance (StemPet and StemEquine are the animal equivalents) which allows your body to release 25% more of its own adult stem cells into the circulatory system, thereby allowing your body to better regenerate itself.

Until tomorrow...
